Silk?? I forget if they said when the fan poll winner was coming out. or it could easily be another variant spidey/wolverine/punisher/iron man -
The Black Widow Movie Gets A November 2020 Release Date
bashpics99 replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
makes sense although that'll be a long wait. Probably doesn't bode too well for sales of the wave though, which was probably already gonna have trouble since the economy is in free-fall. agree that disney should just release new mutants on disney plus now. but maybe they're planning to use it as a test movie when the theatres first re-open, it might end up doing better than expected after people have been deprived of the theatre experience for a few months. -
Too bad about the delay but understandable. The funny part is that i wouldn't have expected to see this figure until may anyhow, given how inconsistent WM's distribution of their exclusive figures tends to be. While i don't recall the jacket from the comics (i'm assuming its a 90s thing) i recall her wearing grey in Miller's DD run and this is a cool looking figure with nice accessories so i will probably try and get her eventually. Read yesterday that VT is ordering WM/Target to stop selling non-essential items in-store (including toys). I'm guessing my state (MA) will follow suit before too long, so even the limited "check the toy aisle at WM while grocery shopping" hunts I've been doing will probably be coming to an end for awhile. In VT, you can still order items online for curbside pickup, though.

Got to agree on this particular point. Seems like an attempt to ensure comic shops don't go the way of the dodo, but really marvel, dc, and image should be pushing everyone to switch to digital copies and collected trades. Since most people are cooped up right now, it would be a good time to get people to try and make the switch from paper to digital. No offense to comic store owners but tbh it feels like we're lucky comics stores have lasted as long as they have. I get that floppies generate the most revenue but publishers are going to have to figure out how to make a profit without them, other book publishers manage it atlho there are fewer publishers than there used to be.

Looks pretty great!! don't see myself building him though. haven't seen this wave in the wild yet but i've only checked my local walmart.
-
Normally i am all over classic comic villains but i was never a huge iron man fan and this guy just seems fairly bland-looking imo. Probably gonna skip him.
-
On the flip side, this would be a really good time for marvel and dc to push their digital comic subscription services. Especially since a lot of libraries are closed and amazon will be putting book shipments on the back burner. this does feel like it may be the end of printed floppies (and consequently, the end of the comic store as we know it) whether the industry can survive without them, I don’t know. But of course we have much bigger concerns anyhow
-
wow, do you remember where you saw that? if true, very disappointing.. altho tbh i have figures for most of the mcu major players already, aside from hawkeye and vision i guess, so i'd probably just stop buying most mcu figs and focus on comic figs, which is largely what i'm doing anyhow.
-
Yeah that picture leapt out to me too, not very flattering. I do think the face looks better than it did in the promo pics, for what its worth. I'll cherry pick this wave if/when i see it in the wild. not my favorite wave by a longshot but who knows whats coming so i'll probably be less hesitant to make an impulse purchase if i like how they look in person.
-
Yeah i was willing to reserve judgement when RG didn't look great in the promo pics, but now we've got another batch of pics from a reviewer and he still looks subpar. Weird since hasbro generally nails it.
-
Looks pretty good, although i'm still on the fence about picking him up. On a side note, i could be wrong but looks like amazon has pulled listings for this wave, as well as AoA and the avengers game wave.

Not hunting but still checking the toy aisle when I go out to get groceries. Found Hellbat yesterday at WM. Also picked up armored Spidey just so i could finish up Demogoblin. I had planned to wait a few months for a price drop but figured what’s the point. But I haven’t gone to WG or GS or made any trips out solely to look for figures. i will also say I think I would feel guilty ordering from amazon since so many folks are trying to get necessities delivered. But I suppose plenty of people are ordering nonessential goods too, to help them bide the time while they are hunkered down. -
Microaggression is there, you just can't seem them because they're the one with shrinking powers.
-
Not for nothing, but from the way I’ve seen groceries flying off store shelves the past couple of days, I kinda doubt making sure Rulk is in stock is a huge priority for target employees at the moment. Sure, a week ago complaining about it would be fair game but I’m sure it’s on the back burner for many stores right now

It feels like for practical purposes the wave was a fan channel exclusive. Never saw it all at at WM, Target, or WG at least in my area. only at FYE and Cap at Gamestop, plus amazon and e-tailers. OTOH it seemed like WM got a huge influx of endgame wave 2 around the holidays, so my theory is that they were supposed to get endgame wave 3 but Hasbro just fell behind in production so sent out wave 2 instead. I'm thinking we may see this wave show up when they set up aisle endcaps for the Widow movie, especially as there is a decent chance hasbro will fall behind in production there as well, at least in terms of meeting initial demand for the wave at WM/Target,
